1. They want to focus on their career.

While we are told that relationships should be our main focus, this is simply not what everyone wants. While some may want a relationship, others may choose to focus on their career. Of course, you can always circle back to relationships later on down the road, when the time is right.

2. They don’t want to share their finances.

In relationships, finances tend to become intermingled. For some, this simply will not do. Whether it is to protect themselves or whether it is for personal reasons, some simply don’t care to combine their finances.

3. Bad previous relationships.

When you’ve had back-to-back toxic relationships, it can weigh on you. After many failed attempts, some choose to take a break to recalibrate, while some may opt to be single forever.

4. FREEDOM

There is no denying that when you are single, you have more freedom. You can go wherever you want, whenever you want. You don’t have to answer to anyone, and this appeals to some people greatly.

5. No desire to be tied down.

While some crave having a partner, others do not so much. Some people like to keep their options open and date around. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with that.

6. Less stress.

Not all relationships are constantly stressful, but at times, all relationships have stressful moments. It is easier sometimes just to focus on yourself and there’s nothing wrong with that.

7. High standards.

The dating pool can be a bit shallow, and while there may be a lot of options, not all of them are going to meet everyone’s standards. With that said, some simply prefer to not settle and have decided to remain single until their person comes along.

8. More time for other aspirations.

Some people simply want to lead their own life. They don’t care to worry about relationships but instead choose to spend time with family, travel, or pursue other goals.

9. Prefer to live alone.

If you’ve ever lived with a partner, then you already know it’s not easy to live with other people, even if you love them. And while some may be okay with making it work, not everyone wants to share their home.

10. Commitment issues.

In some cases, people remain single because they realize they have commitment issues. They recognize this about themselves and instead of trying to date around, they have decided to be open and honest about the fact that they are not ready to commit.

1. Cancer

The Cancer tends to settle in love because he or she doesn’t know how to say no. This kind of person always helps other people and often gets taken advantage of. It really causes a lot of issues and while they shouldn’t this sign is often more than willing to give multiple chances to those who do not deserve them, period.

2. Virgo

The Virgo is a sign that loves very hard. People of this sign often find that they fall for people who put on a good mask and then they’re in so deep pulling back is not easy. They might want to from time to time but they just can’t bring themselves to sever ties unless something truly awful happens.

3. Taurus

The Taurus is someone who loves harder than most other zodiac signs. This sign is one that doesn’t let go unless he or she has to. The more damage they face at the hands of their lover, the more pain they feel, and yet, they still stay. They are not usually comfortable alone and often dive from one disaster of a relationship into another.

4. Pisces

The Pisces is a sign that we for many reasons often look to because of how powerful and creative they are but they deal with a lot on their own. They hold a lot back and do not let their emotions out as well as you would expect. They struggle to let people in but that doesn’t stop them from getting into one relationship after another. When they are in a relationship they take a lot of crap from their partners and even when the worst is happening, they do not often find the strength to leave.

5. Capricorn

The Capricorn is a zodiac sign that often seems to end up in abusive relationships. This sign gives far more than he or she should and rather than placing blame on their partner when something bad happens as they should depending on the situation, they take all of that on their own shoulders. They don’t often realize that they have done nothing wrong and well, it causes a lot of trouble for them.

6. Libra

The Libra often looks for love in the wrong places. He or she will deal with someone who treats him or her badly because of how much of a connection he or she feels they have. Just because you can talk to someone about a lot of interesting things does not mean that the relationship is a good one. If the person you’re with is always causing you pain, why stick around?

7. Aquarius

The Aquarius is a very powerful sign and it’s one that I find holds its own quite well. These people are very easy going and while quite independent, fall hard in love. They may be assertive and that might be a good thing for them overall but with the wrong partner it really sets them up for a lot of pain. They settle for people who are their exact opposites rather than working to find someone they have a lot in common with. Honestly, they are quite vain when it comes to this kind of thing and that is something they really should work on.

A Lady is Every clothing problem in the world of fashion can be remedied with a few mouse clicks by purchasing a new one. Hannah Warling, a blogger, came up with techniques to look great in any outfit without having to hurry out and buy anything new. She gives easy-to-follow tips for dealing with typical wardrobe issues that we all experience, and her hacks are just brilliant.

Get rid of the button-up top gap

The gap in a button-up top may ruin anyone’s appearance, but it’s a simple fix. Simply place your third button in the second buttonhole and the second buttonhole in the third buttonhole. In this manner, you’ll not only hide a problem in your apparel, but you’ll also give your top a textured and unique look.

 A DIY hack for jeans that are too tight

A rubber band or hair tie will save the day if you’re in a hurry and your only jeans are too small in the waist. Loop the elastic around your button after threading it through the buttonhole. It takes less than a minute, and you will no longer be inconvenienced by clothing that is too tight.

 Make your dresses fit perfectly

Tailoring isn’t cheap, and people’s weight fluctuates often, which is why you can mend a saggy dress yourself. Turn your dress inside out and pin two pins to the inside of your waistband on both sides. After that, thread a shoelace through the dress’s back pins. Also, make sure your garment is turned out so no one can see the shoelace hidden behind it. Your dress will now be nice and secure thanks to the shoelace.

Transform tops into this square-neck tank top

This cute hack will help you to adjust the neckline on a basic tank top. Take one of your straps, pull it off, then you’ll need to loop it, and it’s ready to be pulled back on your arm. Repeat with the second arm, and voilà, you just made a straight across look, and you’re ready to conquer some hearts.

There’s no need to buy a strapless bra

There is a solution if you don’t have a strapless bra to wear with your off-the-shoulder clothes. Move the left strap on the right shoulder after lifting it over your head. Then, with your right arm out of the trap, release it. The strap will stay under your armpit this way. Repeat with the other arm, and both straps will be taut over the front of your chest, allowing you to wear it comfortably without showing the straps.

Keep your strapless bra from sliding down

And if you already have a bra without straps, you know how inconvenient it is to wear since it never stays in place. To fix it, try this simple DIY hack: hook a bra strap on one side, wrap it along the bra front, and hook it back on the opposite side. The final step is to adjust the strap to make it tighter if needed.

 Fix a belt that’s too long

If the belt has too much extra slack to it, and the leftover part sticks out, add a rubber band or hair tie that matches the belt’s color. Tuck it under the belt, loop one end into another, and put it over the loose end of the belt.

Cuff jeans neatly

If you’re cuffing your jeans, try this hack to make your look perfect. First, fold the jeans on both sides into the front center and then roll them up. This way, your jeans won’t only look better, but they will also stop unrolling so quickly.

Their motivation and consistency play important roles in maintaining their beauty, even at the age of 50.

Use rice water

Rice water is a popular ingredient in many Japanese and Korean skincare products, and research has shown that it has anti-aging properties as well as the ability to lighten your skin. You can either use rice water in skincare products or make it yourself. You can use it to wash your face before cleansing or as a mist to hydrate your skin.

You can also use rice water to soften and shine your hair. It is critical to use clean rice water because you do not want impurities on your skin or hair.

Double cleanse your face

Double cleansing is a popular technique in Korea and Japan because it ensures that your face is free of impurities and dirt that accumulate after wearing makeup and sunscreen all day. The first cleanser is typically an oil-based cleanser, which helps to soothe the face while removing unwanted and oily substances from your pores.

The second cleanser is a standard water-based cleanser that removes any remaining residue. This allows other skincare products to penetrate your skin more easily and softens the texture of your skin.

Drink lemongrass tea

Lemongrass is widely used in Asian cooking, particularly Thai cuisine. Its fragrant smell brings out aromatic flavors and it has a plethora of benefits. Lemongrass tea is a great detoxifier for your body and may promote healthy digestion. It might also help reduce menstrual cramps and bloating.

Eating healthily is essential in promoting radiant skin and lemongrass tea is a nourishing drink that you can add to your diet.

Use products with snail mucin

Snail mucin has been used since Ancient Greece and is still used today. Snail mucin is widely used in Asian skincare products due to its complex blend of hyaluronic and glycolic acids, both of which are beneficial to the skin. The mucin also contains zinc, which soothes skin irritation; the combination of these ingredients makes your skin glow and shine brighter.

Try a Korean body scrub

Korean body scrubs differ from traditional body scrubs in that they require sandpaper-like texture mittens to remove excess gunk and dead skin cells from your body rather than just your bare hands and an exfoliating gel.

You can look for Korean spas near you or order the special mittens online. Depending on your pain threshold, it may be painful. However, it rejuvenates and softens your skin while also moisturizing it with body lotions.

Apply castor oil on hair and skin

Pure castor oil helps lock moisture in dry and damaged hair, making the hair softer. It may also help with dandruff problems by massaging the oil on your scalp. Applying castor oil on your eyelashes may also promote longer lashes.

As a face oil, castor oil promotes moisturization and smooths the skin. It has antioxidants that help prevent wrinkles and fine lines from appearing faster if you use it earlier in adulthood

Face massage with a jade roller/gua sha

Gua sha or jade rollers are surging in popularity these days around the world and they are worth all the hype. Originating from China, gua sha is traditionally used on the body to relieve muscle aches, chronic pain, and reduce inflammation after applying massage oil. However, by using a gentler force, it can be done on the face to improve blood circulation. By doing so, it reduces puffiness and releases muscle tension from the face.

Add sheet masks to your skin care routine

One of the best ways to take care of the skin is to use sheet masks and especially sheet masks with anti-aging ingredients that help with collagen. They’re practical to use and come with many benefits including skin brightening. They are perfect when it comes to reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

]]> 30491 Right Ways to Clean Makeup and Beauty Tools https://writehorizon.com/right-ways-to-clean-makeup-and-beauty-tools/ Wed, 23 Jun 2021 18:42:35 +0000 https://alternatech.net/?p=9245 Written by Mary Marlowe Leverette

Makeup Brushes

Unless you have extras, pick a time to clean your makeup brushes when you’re not in a rush.

  • First, wet the brush well with plain, cool water. Try to wet only the bristle part to prevent weakening the adhesive that holds the brush to the handle.
  • Place a dab of gentle shampoo or detergent in the palm of your hand and swish the brush through the shampoo, making sure it gets into the center of the brush.
  • Rinse with plain water, keeping that handle dry.
  • Gently squeeze the water out of the bristles, keeping them lying as flat as possible. Lay the brushes flat on a towel to air dry, at least overnight before using.

Hair Brushes, Combs, and Hair Accessories

Hairbrushes and combs collect lots of oily dirt, dead skin and hair products on their surfaces. If you don’t clean them regularly, all of that gunk is transferred back to your hair and can leave it looking dull and flat.

  • First, remove as much hair as possible from the brush or comb with your fingers or with tweezers.
  • Next, dampen the brush or comb with water and work in a bit of shampoo. Use your hands to work the shampoo into the bristles or teeth.
  • Fill a sink with warm water and allow the brush and comb to soak for at least fifteen minutes. Finally, use an old toothbrush to loosen and residue that might remain.

Ultrasonic Facial Brushes

Even though you use a cleanser with your ultrasonic facial brush, it still needs to be cleaned regularly, at least weekly.

  • Unscrew the brush head.
  • Use a few drops of liquid antibacterial soap on an old toothbrush to scrub between the bristles.
  • Rinse well with warm water and then clean the handle with the soap and a soft cloth.
  • Allow the brush head to air dry overnight separated from the handle.

Eyelash Curler

Mascara, eyeliner, and bacteria can all coat the surface of your eyelash curler. None of that sounds very conducive to good eye health. A curler should be cleaned at least weekly; daily if you have sensitive eyes or any type of eye infection.

  • To clean the curler, wet a cotton pad or ball with rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide and wipe down all the surfaces that come in contact with your eyes.
  • Keep moving to a clean part of the pad as you work. When it looks clean, make one last pass with a clean pad dipped in rubbing alcohol.
  • Rinse with plain cool water because the alcohol may dry out any rubber or plastic components.
  • Allow to air dry on a clean towel.

Tweezers

They are used for lots of tasks and almost all of them involve contact with body fluids. To lessen the chance of infection, tweezers should be cleaned after every use.

  • For overall cleaning, wash the entire implement with a bit of antibacterial hand soap and warm water.
  • Then, dip the tips in rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide or rub with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol.
  • Allow to air dry on a clean towel.

Makeup Pencil Sharpeners

Eyeliner, eyebrow and lip liner pencils all become dull and need to be sharpened. And, each of these has been in contact with body fluids before they are put in that sharpener. To prevent cross-contamination, the sharpener should be cleaned after every use.

  • Simply dip an old toothbrush into some rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide and carefully get into the edges of the sharpener.
  • Rinse well with cool water and allow to air dry.

Natural Boar Bristle, Cushion, and Wooden Handle

Skip the soaking step because it can damage parts of the brush. Instead, you may need to repeat the shampoo and a bit of water using an old toothbrush and then rinse well and allow to air dry.
Don’t forget to clean plastic and metal barrettes, headbands and clips. They can be cleaned the same way and you may need to use a bit of rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad to remove hairspray residue.

For fabric headbands and bows, follow label directions, or spot clean with a gentle detergent and plain water. Allow the items to air dry and then spritz on a bit of spray starch or fabric sizing and gently reshape with your fingers.

Manicure and Pedicure Tools

There are horror stories about infections from manicure and pedicure tools because the tools come in contact with dirt, bacteria and body fluids. Proper cleaning is essential.

Dispose of single-use items like wooden sticks and cotton pads after every use. Metal implements should be washed with warm water and antibacterial soap using an old toothbrush to get into the hard to reach areas and then the edges cleaned with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol or hydrogen peroxide after every use.

Plastic or synthetic materials like toe separators or nail brushes should be wiped down with rubbing alcohol. Abrasive surfaces like nail files and buffers can be cleaned by brushing with that clean nail brush.

Make sure tools are completely dry and stored properly in a clean container. Do not leave dirty tools in an airtight plastic bag or container because that can promote the growth of bacteria.

Curling and Flat Irons

Hair spray and other hair products can build-up on curling and flat irons and all of that heat simply bakes it onto the surface. You can’t just dunk these appliances in water, and scraping off the gunk can damage surfaces.

  • Unplug the appliance and make sure it is completely cool.
  • Then wet a cotton pad or ball with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and go over the sticky surfaces. Allow it to work for a few minutes. You may need to use several pads to complete the job.
  • Wipe down with a clean, damp cloth and then a soft, dry cloth.

The irons can also be cleaned by mixing a tablespoon of baking soda with one teaspoon of water. Apply the paste to the sticky areas with a soft cloth and “scrub” lightly. Wipe away the residue with a clean cloth dipped in plain water and then dry with a soft cloth.

Male and female, underwear gives us protection and support to our important bits and protects our outerwear from soiling. Donning underwear has become a second nature habit and generally few of us give any thought to what we put on during the day or whether our underwear is fit for purpose or suited to the right occasion. Our underwear habits can speak volumes about personality and can have a marked effect on underwear production globally.

The following facts about underwear should give you some food for thought in underwear choices and habits and a head start in ensuring you are properly attired and healthy in mind and body.

Should You Sit In Satin?

Satin underwear is very pretty and essentially comes under that special occasion selection. However if your underwear is all satin then you need to be aware of the downsides that can occur from wearing the fabric. Satin is a non-breathable fabric and when those enclosed areas around anus, groin and genitalia get hot and sweaty a breeding ground for infections is created. Satin will not soak up the moisture so it stays put. Most panties will have a cotton gusset which will help to alleviate the problem, so do check them out before you buy. Bras too, especially if you suffer from boob sweat , can allow bacteria to thrive on the underside of the breast, which can cause sores to develop. Loose fitting satin camisoles are ok as they allow air between the fabric and the body. There is no need to ditch the satin, just keep it for those special occasions.

It’s A Match

Making sure you have a clean pair of panties on in case of the unexpected is one thing. Another is, as much as possible, to ensure you are wearing a matching bra and panties, or at least common in fabric and or colour scheme. Only a very small percentage of women (approx. 15%) wear matching underwear. How many times do you go out without thinking about it. We have a tendency to just grab the first pair of panties and bra that come to hand. Some may say that at least you are wearing some, however it is so much nicer to have something on that sembles a match, to make you feel properly dressed. It shows you have given some thought to your appearance. Next time you purchase new underwear also give some thought to what bras you already have at home and do your best to select panties that will look good with them.

What Sort Of Woman Are You?

Does the type of panties you wear give away the person you are? Research suggests that they can. If you wear white cotton panties you are low maintenance and down to earth. Put it to the test and check out the type of panties you have with the person you are. Perhaps you are high maintenance and wear frilly, lacy ones, or are a daring confident women in a thong. Style and colour all play a part in giving our personality traits away. Who knew that underwear could speak for us. If you are one of the lads, sporty or up for a laugh then boy shorts or boxers are for you. Bikinis suggest you are laid back. Are you a passionate red, or a joyful bright yellow, a peaceful blue or romantic pink? Our moods fluctuate so wear something that reflects your mood and if you want a change then just go change your panties.

In general, thongs put you at a higher risk for infections

In order for them to do their job, thongs usually fit pretty snug. When you combine the tight fit with the abrasive material they’re often made of (like lace), you have a pretty good equation that could equal infection. Dr. Ghofrany says frequently wearing them could increase your chances of developing one, especially if you’ve had infections down there before. “Thongs are not the most breathable type of underwear,” she says. “You want underwear that won’t trap moisture because moisture attracts bacteria.”

So while Dr. Ghofrany doesn’t urge everyone to toss their thong collection, she recommends toning it down a bit if they’re your daily go-to. This will give your lady parts a bit of a breather—literally.

 

10 Types of Underwear for Women – Best Panty Styles 2021

Keeping Abreast Of Things

Bras keep breasts in check, enhance the appearance under clothing, provide support and help prevent back strain if you have large breasts. It is recommended that a bra should be replaced every 6 months to ensure you are getting the support you need. A new bra should be fastened on the first hooks, (the ones at the end). Once the bra is worn a few times, and elastic becomes less effective, you should then use the middle set of hooks and eventually the third set. Straps should be tightened to a point where they can only be lifted to an inch above your shoulders. The panel between cups should sit tight against your skin and should remain there when you lift your arms above your head. These steps will ensure you have a good fitting bra. If you have reached the point of using the third set of hooks you start to lose proper support and the bra has little or no effect and it is time to replace it.

Things To Consider When Buying Underwear

So, you need new underwear. Are you the sort of person who just goes out and buys the same as always or do you give more thought to this very important purchase? It is estimated that about 80% of women are wearing the wrong sized bra. What’s the point if it does not fit properly. A good bra outfitter will always provide a measuring service. Underwear should fit comfortably and correctly and serve the purpose for whatever reason you are buying it. For example, if you are wearing a tight fitting dress there is no point wearing bikini or midi’s, the last thing you want is a visible pantie line, better to go for a thong or shapewear. Materials can react to each other too and make clothes cling to your body, so bear in mind every aspect of your outfit. Make sure your purchases are appropriate and cater for the occasion. Underwear serves a purpose, so get it right.

A Little Bit About Fantasie Helena |

Lucky In Red

Red underwear is for those feeling lucky because Italian women ring in the new years by wearing red underwear because it is considered lucky, and not just women, the men do it to. The same tradition happens in Turkey too. It seems that the wearing of red underwear wards off bad. In China, if the year you were born under (horse, pig, rabbit etc.), is happening, then you should wear red underwear for the entirety of that year. In Poland, students wear red underwear when taking exams, as a lucky charm after rumours spread that top grades were achieved by girls wearing red underwear. Red is a colour that protects you, which makes sense when you consider red for danger, not a wise idea to go near. It is superstition but if it helps then why not. On the one hand red spells danger but it seems that if you are feeling lucky then red underwear has the pulling power.

Single Measures

It is a fine line, but statistics say that ‘Singletons are much less likely to put on fresh undies that their married counterparts—82 percent versus 88 percent’. 1This applies to men more than women. So, is the reason simply to cut down on laundry or because single people are lazy, or because single people have no partner in life to impress? One theory in regards to men is that their mum used to go out a buy it for them, so getting into a routine of regularly buying new underwear themselves is a slow process and of course mum used to do the laundry. The downsides of not changing underwear daily are, and this goes for women as well as men, a build-up of bacteria, causing irritation or infection, increase in odour, yeast infection, and urinary tract infections (UTIs) such as cystitis. And remember what your mother told you about wearing a clean pair every day in case something happens to you.

The looser the better

When it comes to the fit of underwear, you obviously don’t want it drooping and falling off, but you should seek a fit that isn’t so tight that it’s leaving uncomfortable marks on your waistline. Aside from discomfort, tight underwear traps moisture, even more so when worn under skinny jeans or leggings—and you want that area to breathe! Dr. Ghofrany also recommends skipping underwear altogether at night. “I don’t advise going commando during the day under tight-fitting clothes, but letting your genital region breathe at night while sleeping can be beneficial,” she says.
